The reality is simple in fact : Computer made TPR over 2500 or 2600 but they do not play like a GM. A Gm once told me talking about computer : they do not play the same game than me :-)) Another thing is true : If you take some players rated about 2200 but who kow computer very well and put them in a tourney with a computer the prog will not make a TPR even over 2200.But this same computer can tear in pieces some Gm's the same day :-) Computer play very different chess than humans they are full of holes but they NEVER really blunder. Some +2600 players blunder piece away very often in time trouble. Best regards Alexandre Côme
